Synopsis:

Sean McNamara and Christian Troy are two plastic surgeons success. Enjoy a high standard of living and in private things seem to fare equally well: Sean is a family man married for twenty years with Julia, with whom he has two children, while Christian is one of the singles gold in the city. However, below this ideal appearance hides a terribly dysfunctional family in one case and an addiction to sex that causes a huge emotional void in the other. The bizarre stories of their patients fit well with the twisted anxieties of the doctors.

Comment:

Nip Tuck revolves around the friendship of Sean and Christian, two colleagues who work seamlessly as the two stereotypes of men of success. The married conservative, conventional and stable and promiscuous singles and frivolous. But in the first chapter we see that the McNamara family facing serious problems: Julia, Sean's wife, who gave up his own career as a doctor to help her husband carry out his, going through a midlife crisis strong, driven for his professional frustration for the very troubled teen of his spoiled eldest son, who directs both her and her father all kind of impertinence and disrespect, and his uncertainty about the love for Sean. The couple, united by ties of dependency and fear of loneliness, living in a perpetual psychological warfare: he, like so many husbands of a housewife is unable to help himself in any aspect of life that is not professional and you need a sickly woman who can not offer much more than contempt and anger for having been buried their wings clipped. Throughout the series is a succession of episodes in which she makes the decision to abandon him to despair, or conversely, when is he who begins to fend for itself can not overcome the emotional blackmail that produces the helplessness of it.

Does that mean that the series is declared contrary to marriage NiO and conventional values? You can, but even Christian Troy is undoubtedly the king of the function, the single life he practiced the same radiograph raw and bitter. Rich and highly seductive, Christian has no problem linking each night to the prettiest girl in the bar, but can not help envying the stability of his friend. Raised a Catholic, his frivolous life he creates a sense of guilt and inferiority capable of feeling love known. It spends at work, in the unbridled consumption of luxury goods and despotism with women, touching and sometimes going beyond the barrier of sadism. The explanation for his misogyny may be because Christian has always been in love with Julia, Sean's wife, or perhaps from Sean himself, as he suggests a psychoanalyst in a chapter, or perhaps to the poor image of himself prefers to leave fast to their conquests, or tampering with your attitude that you leave them little time to leave it even later, which no doubt you think will happen if a woman manages to get to know him.

At first glance Nip Tuck, in each chapter dips of any kind shamelessly in hell for these characters, like a soap opera plot with the typical premise of these products: the rich also cry that is, emotional conflicts, marital and family scenarios developed in luxury. Yes, that is, but taking that approach as far as where he has never reached in the history of the small screen, getting one of the best portraits ever seen in a frivolous world, inhuman, fiercely competitive and where the obsession with beauty and perfection that defects do not admit: they must be erased or obscured by surgery dramatically until tensions generated by detonation of the situation.

The sordid and insane of his plots prevents Nip Tuck has the same range of cult status enjoyed by other productions vastly more empty and superficial, but I do strive to give an appearance of respectability. However, behind the appearance of B or product, is a summit of psychodrama that talks about loneliness, guilt, redemption, superficiality, lack of communication and all the problems of contemporary urban man at the same level as the works of leading film directors.

Comment:

Sex and the single father (single father and sex) the title of an episode of the series, played a paraphrase sex and the single girl , a film of the 60's starring Natalie Wood in Spain is called the Single Girl . Sex and the single father had also been an appropriate name for this sitcom, a pioneering television product be intended for adult audiences and unfamiliar and for daring to openly display or caution of the life of a divorcee with their pickups, Adventures , successes and (more often) amorous failures. Breaking with tradition television talk only of parents and mothers, Martin Tupper was a stereotype with which could identified many single, separated and divorced men and women who live alone and who represent an increasingly higher population of large cities.

Martin is no hero and no innocent young, attractiv oy has a good job, so it is not without conquests. Although supposedly looking for a partner, rarely exceeds a second or third date with a girl. The reason, of which he is half conscious, is that still in love with his ex-wife, Judith, and although it increasingly clear that will never be together, not able to stop being under its influence. A close friendship it helps they continue to hold Martin and Judith, unable to accept a life without her friend Martin's remains, the son who both have in common is a perfect excuse to spend every few minutes on the floor of your ex or invite her to yours . He pays a high price (alone) for this friendship, unspeakable aim is to make fertile ground for her to return one day with him, however remote that possibility is, and she was even more reluctant to this close relationship with his ex, is not entirely innocent probably pleased to know that you two men at her feet, its current and former partner.

Dream put in a comic situation dependency of the ex-couple very typical of the divorced and separated. Martin is also particularly prone to this condition helpless child in character, shown by the old movies that are in your head constantly, the claims of each chapter show us small watching TV under the supervision of his mother; Martin ellipse changes to the adult child, also asleep at the TV. This, together with the title, Dream , we announce that Martin is immature, in need of a woman of character to replace her mother, and a little good-natured. With the success of his best friend, Eddie Charles, typical shark has a successful waste program that is linked to the girls most spectacular, and the new husband of his ex, a doctor whose bliss Perfect Don Martin constantly torture, the hero does not get a job up in probably less than its worth, which also can not be imposed on a secretary and a chief blatant and tacky nouveau riche. This continual feeling of h umillación shown in a fun way with images of old films that Martin saw the small front of the TV, and acting as a voice-over introduces us what you think and feel at all times.
